Alright Folks,

Back from sailing round Ha Long Bay for 2 days and spending a night on the boat. Well I say sailing but it was more like being driven. Ha Long Bay is kind of like the Whit Sundays in Ozz but with massivo limestone pillars and rocks instead of islands. Wayer was cool tourquoise colour and did a bit of sea kayaking which was kinda hard. Back in crazy Hanoi, dodging mopeds (3 Mill people in the city and 2.8 Mill mopoeds!!). Going to get a bus a hundred Km down the coast to nin Bin to check out some monkeys (Ali will say hi to your cousins :)) and a 1000 year old tree. There are some caves that we might do but see how time goes. The have a tasty 13 hour overnight bus trip to Hue for some kite surfing and sandboarding :)))))))))))))

Blue's will finally come into their own!! Right off to find El Birdo and swap some books. Almost finished the whole Tolkien set in 6 days, one more book to go!!

Laters,

C
